This supports more stable energy production under variable irradiance conditions, as noted in the series description. - **30-year linear power warranty** - The 30-year power warranty exceeds the still-common 25-year terms in this segment, placing the series among the longer-guaranteed products on the market and reducing long-term investment risk. - **High power density per roof area** - At 440 Wp with dense cell packing, the series delivers more power from the same footprint, meaning fewer panels, shorter cabling, and simpler installation - translating into real BoS (Balance of System) cost savings. - **Anti-reflective glass and sealed IP junction box** - Tempered anti-reflective glass and a sealed junction box with a rated IP class improve resistance to moisture and harsh environmental conditions, relevant for flat-roof installations and variable climates. ## Cons - **Efficiency below comparable peer models** - At 22.37% efficiency, the series trails all three comparable 440 Wp series: JA Solar JAM54D40 (22.5%), G-STAR N-Type CleanEdge (22.53%), and Luxor ECO LINE N-Type TOPCon (22.86%) - a gap of up to 0.49 pp versus the leading peer. - **Monofacial module, no bifacial option** - The series lacks bifacial technology, which in ground-mount installations or on high-albedo surfaces can add roughly 5-10% additional rear-side energy yield - competing bifacial panels may deliver higher real-world output in such applications. ## About this series The Lina Energy LEPV 132 ULTRA PREMIUM series is designed for maximum energy yield from the same roof or ground area - thanks to its dense cell packing and refined module design. This is the solution for investors who want to realistically reduce system costs (fewer panels, shorter cabling, simpler installation) without compromising durability. Compared to the competition, it stands out due to its **high efficiency in everyday operation** - particularly in variable sunlight conditions, when the installation operates more frequently outside of the ideal laboratory setting. The use of monocrystalline cells and the module architecture supports **stable energy production** and minimizes losses due to partial shading. An additional advantage is the **anti-reflective, tempered glass** and sealed junction box with an IP protection rating, which increases resistance to moisture and harsh environmental conditions. LEPV 132 ULTRA PREMIUM is a good choice for homes, businesses, and flat-roof installations - anywhere where **long-term reliability** and predictable yield are important. ## Notable figures - Efficiency of 22.4% matches the \*\*Back Contact 400-450W\*\* median - At 223.5 W/m² power density, roof space requirements are typical for \*\*Back Contact 400-450W\*\* panels - Temperature coefficient of -0.29%/°C matches the \*\*Back Contact 400-450W\*\* median - In the top 35% for efficiency among all Back Contact panels ## Questions ### What is the peak power output of the Lina Energy LEPV 132 ULTRA PREMIUM panel and what does it mean in practice? The Lina Energy LEPV 132 ULTRA PREMIUM reaches a peak power of 440 Wp. In practice, a typical residential system built from 10 modules delivers 4.4 kWp of installed capacity. The high per-module wattage allows you to build a larger system with the same number of panels, or reduce the panel count without sacrificing annual energy yield. ### What is Back Contact cell technology in the LEPV 132 ULTRA PREMIUM and why is it better than standard cells? In Back Contact technology, all current-carrying metal contacts are moved to the rear side of the cell. The entire front surface remains active and is not shaded by busbars or front-side metal grids. The result is a higher light-to-electricity conversion efficiency compared to conventional monocrystalline modules, while the module also gains a clean, uniform front appearance. ### What warranty is included with Lina Energy LEPV 132 ULTRA PREMIUM panels? The manufacturer provides a 20-year product warranty covering material and workmanship defects, plus a 30-year linear power output warranty. The power warranty guarantees energy production in line with a specified degradation schedule over 30 years. Such an extended performance guarantee is a significant advantage when calculating the return on investment for any system. ### Are Lina Energy LEPV 132 ULTRA PREMIUM panels suitable for a pitched roof with partial shading? Yes, the LEPV 132 ULTRA PREMIUM series is well suited for pitched roofs. The Back Contact cell architecture reduces losses caused by partial shading because it eliminates front-side busbars, which themselves represented a source of optical and electrical losses. The anti-reflective tempered glass further improves yield at low solar angles typical of Northern European climates throughout much of the year. ### Is the LEPV 132 ULTRA PREMIUM a bifacial or monofacial panel? The LEPV 132 ULTRA PREMIUM series is a monofacial panel, not bifacial. Energy is harvested exclusively through the front surface of the module. This is a proven solution for pitched-roof residential installations and standard ground-mount systems where albedo contribution from the ground surface is not significant. ### Are Lina Energy LEPV 132 ULTRA PREMIUM panels still available for purchase? Yes, the Lina Energy LEPV 132 ULTRA PREMIUM series is actively manufactured and available on the market. Modules can be ordered through authorized Lina Energy distributors. Before placing an order, it is worth confirming current stock availability and lead times with your chosen reseller. ## Datasheet [Manufacturer datasheet (PDF)](https://comparepv.com/datasheets/6-a2decba2a60e.pdf) ## Alternatives | Panel | Power | How it differs | | --- | --- | --- | | [AIKO AIKO-A490-MCE54Mw](https://comparepv.com/panel/aiko-aiko-a490-mce54mw) | 490 W | +50 W, cooler, +2.1 pp | | [Suntech STP-NT11/48QGSF-490](https://comparepv.com/panel/suntech-stp-nt11-48qgsf-490) | 490 W | +50 W, cooler, +2.1 pp | | [JA Solar JAT54S40-485/LR](https://comparepv.com/panel/ja-solar-jat54s40-485-lr) | 485 W | +45 W, cooler, +1.9 pp | | [AIKO AIKO-A485-MCE54Mw](https://comparepv.com/panel/aiko-aiko-a485-mce54mw) | 485 W | +45 W, cooler, +1.9 pp | | [AIKO AIKO-A485-MAH54Mw](https://comparepv.com/panel/aiko-aiko-a485-mah54mw) | 485 W | +45 W, cooler, +1.9 pp | | [Gokin GK-5-54HG-485M](https://comparepv.com/panel/gokin-gk-5-54hg-485m) | 485 W | +45 W, cooler, +1.9 pp | | [Heckert Solar ZEUS 3.0+ 108 485WP](https://comparepv.com/panel/heckert-solar-zeus-3-0-108-485wp) | 485 W | +45 W, heavier, +1.9 pp | | [Longi Solar LR7-54HJD-510M](https://comparepv.com/panel/longi-lr7-54hjd-510m) | 510 W | +70 W, cooler, +2.6 pp | | [Longi Solar LR7-60HVH-560M](https://comparepv.com/panel/longi-lr7-60hvh-560m) | 560 W | +120 W, heavier, +2.4 pp | | [Longi Solar LR7-54HJD-505M](https://comparepv.com/panel/longi-lr7-54hjd-505m) | 505 W | +65 W, cooler, +2.3 pp | | [Longi Solar LR7-60HVH-555M](https://comparepv.com/panel/longi-lr7-60hvh-555m) | 555 W | +115 W, heavier, +2.2 pp | | [Longi Solar LR7-54HJD-500M](https://comparepv.com/panel/longi-lr7-54hjd-500m) | 500 W | +60 W, cooler, +2.1 pp | --- Source: https://comparepv.com/panel/lina-energy-lepv-440 Not in this file, on the page: the I-V and temperature curves lifted from the manufacturer's datasheet, a thirty-year output simulator and alternatives filtered by how closely they match these dimensions.
